Posted: Dec 7, 2010

Some other journalists are saying that this compromise will better his chances at re-election in 2012. I can't give the sources as I've been reading so many pros and cons of this compromise today that it's mind-boggling.

with all due respect, you need to start giving - links or opinions - sm

Just saying you've "heard" or "read" the opposite of what someone else said kills the conversation. Unless there is some discussion, opinion, or even links, it sounds like you are just being randomly contrary, since you do this relatively often.

The network, which is frequently lampooned by liberal organizations such as Media Matters for an alleged conservative bias, suffered a conveniently timed setback that eliminated the final words of a Democratic lawmaker talking up his party's healthcare reform. Arizona Republican congressman ...

Juan Williams FIRED: NPR Sacks Analyst Over Fox News Muslim CommentsOct 22, 2010
I feel like NPR should have reprimanded him but not fire him. Juan was arguing with O'Reilly, not supporting his views.

NPR's media reporter David Folkenflik broke the news on Twitter. Williams' comments came during a discussion with Bill O'Reilly on Monday's "O'Re ...

Far Right Uses Lots Of Words Drowning Us In Bumper-sticker-style Comments But No SubstanceNov 10, 2015

Carson's Comments Get Stranger And StrangerNov 05, 2015
